		                        			 Objective:
		                        			Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders in children and adolescents, often accompanied by motor function disorders. Sarcopenia not only has skeletal muscle dysfunction but also has neurocognitive dysfunction. At present, there is no research to explore the relationship between ADHD and skeletal muscle function. The purpose of this study is to explore whether there is a causal effect between ADHD and sarcopenia. 
		                        		
		                        			Methods:
		                        			In this study, genome-wide association study data of ADHD, appendicular lean mass (ALM), hand grip strength, and walking pace (WP) were extracted from public databases. The bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) method was employed to investigate the correlation between ADHD and sarcopenia-related indicators, and the inverse-variance weighted analysis as the primary analysis method. 
		                        		
		                        			Results:
		                        			Based on the forward MR analysis, a potential causal relationship exists between ADHD and ALM (odds ratio [OR]=1.020, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.012–1.029, p<0.001). The reverse MR analysis indicates a link between WP and the risk of ADHD (OR=2.712, 95% CI: 1.609–4.571, p<0.001), with an accelerated WP increasing the likelihood of ADHD. Nevertheless, other MR analysis results did not show significant differences. 
		                        		
		                        			Conclusion
		                        			The findings of this study indicate an intricate causal relationship between ADHD and sarcopenia, suggesting the absence of a clear link. WP may be used as one of the indicators to evaluate the risk of ADHD. At the same time, we should pay more attention to the ALM of ADHD patients.

		                        			Objective:To analyze the factors affecting delayed chemotherapy in children with Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and their influence on prognosis.Methods:Retrospective cohort study. Clinical data of 591 children aged ≤18 years with BL from May 2017 to December 2022 in China Net Childhood Lymphoma (CNCL) was collected. The patients were treated according to the protocol CNCL-BL-2017. According to the clinical characteristics, therapeutic regimen was divided into group A, group B and group C .Based on whether the total chemotherapy time was delayed, patients were divided into two groups: the delayed chemotherapy group and the non-delayed chemotherapy group. Based on the total delayed time of chemotherapy, patients in group C were divided into non-delayed chemotherapy group, 1-7 days delayed group and more than 7 days delayed group. Relationships between delayed chemotherapy and gender, age, tumor lysis syndrome before chemotherapy, bone marrow involvement, disease group (B/C group), serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) > 4 times than normal, grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ myelosuppression after chemotherapy, minimal residual disease in the interim assessment, and severe infection (including severe pneumonia, sepsis, meningitis, chickenpox, etc.) were analyzed. Logistic analysis was used to identify the relevant factors. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the patients' survival information. Log-Rank was used for comparison between groups.Results:Among 591 patients, 504 were males and 87 were females, the follow-up time was 34.8 (18.6,50.1) months. The 3-year overall survival (OS) rate was (92.5±1.1)%,and the 3-year event-free survival (EFS) rate was (90.5±1.2)%. Seventy-three (12.4%) patients were in delayed chemotherapy group and 518 (87.6%) patients were in non-delayed chemotherapy group. The reasons for chemotherapy delay included 72 cases (98.6%) of severe infection, 65 cases (89.0%) of bone marrow suppression, 35 cases (47.9%) of organ dysfunction, 22 cases (30.1%) of tumor lysis syndrome,etc. There were 7 cases of chemotherapy delay in group B, which were seen in COPADM (vincristine+cyclophosphamide+prednisone+daunorubicin+methotrexate+intrathecal injection,4 cases) and CYM (methotrexate+cytarabine+intrathecal injection,3 cases) stages. There were 66 cases of chemotherapy delay in group C, which were common in COPADM (28 cases) and CYVE 1 (low dose cytarabine+high dose cytarabine+etoposide+methotrexate, 12 cases) stages. Multinomial Logistic regression analysis showed that the age over 10 years old ( OR=0.54,95% CI 0.30-0.93), tumor lysis syndrome before chemotherapy ( OR=0.48,95% CI 0.27-0.84) and grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ myelosuppression after chemotherapy ( OR=0.55,95% CI 0.33-0.91)were independent risk factors for chemotherapy delay.The 3-year OS rate and the 3-year EFS rate of children with Burkitt lymphoma in the delayed chemotherapy group were lower than those in the non-delayed chemotherapy group ((79.4±4.9)% vs. (94.2±1.1)%, (80.2±4.8)% vs. (92.0±1.2)%,both P<0.05). The 3-year OS rate of the group C with chemotherapy delay >7 days (42 cases) was lower than that of the group with chemotherapy delay of 1-7 days (22 cases) and the non-delay group (399 cases) ((76.7±6.9)% vs. (81.8±8.2)% vs. (92.7±1.3)%, P=0.002).The 3-year OS rate of the chemotherapy delay group (9 cases) in the COP (vincristine+cyclophosphamide+prednisone) phase was lower than that of the non-chemotherapy delay group (454 cases) ((66.7±15.7)% vs. (91.3±1.4)%, P=0.005). Similarly, the 3-year OS rate of the chemotherapy delay group (11 cases) in the COPADM1 phase was lower than that of the non-chemotherapy delay group (452 cases) ((63.6±14.5)% vs. (91.5±1.3)%, P=0.001). Conclusions:The delayed chemotherapy was related to the age over 10 years old, tumor lysis syndrome before chemotherapy and grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ myelosuppression after chemotherapy in pediatric BL. There is a significant relationship between delayed chemotherapy and prognosis of BL in children.

		                        			Objective:To investigate the role of hepatitis B virus X protein (HBx) in glomerular podocyte immune disorder and its regulatory mechanism.Methods:Fourteen 6-week-old male hepatitis B virus (HBV) transgenic (HBV-Tg) mice were selected, and age-matched wild type (WT) mice were as controls. They were fed to different weeks, and 24 h urinary protein, blood biochemistry, renal pathology and podocyte changes under electron microscope were detected. The expression of HBx and the infiltration of immune cells in kidney tissue of HBV-Tg mice were observed by immunohistochemistry. Human podocyte cell line was transfected with pcDNA3.1/myc-HBx plasmid, and the localization of HBx and Nephrin in podocytes was detected by immunofluorescence. The expression of major histocompatibility complex Ⅱ (MHC-Ⅱ) and co- stimulatory molecule CD40 on the cell surface was detected by flow cytometry. The contents of multiple cytokines in cell culture supernatants were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) was used to screen the downstream related genes regulated by HBx, and real-time quantitative PCR was used to verify their expressions. After overexpression or silencing of Notch1 gene with overexpressed plasmids or short hairpin RNA (shRNA) in podocytes, the effects on the expression of immune molecules and cytokines secretion was observed. The Notch receptor inhibitor N-[N-(3, 5-difluorophenyl-l- alanyl)]-(s)-phenylglycine tert-butyl ester (DAPT) was used to block Notch1 signaling pathway in HBV-Tg mice, and then blood biochemistry, renal pathological changes and infiltration of immune cells in kidney tissue were observed. Results:Twenty-four-hour urine protein, serum creatinine and urea nitrogen levels were markedly increased (all P<0.05) and renal pathological injury was significantly aggravated in HBV-Tg mice than those in WT mice. Also, HBx was up-regulated and immune cells infiltrated in the glomerulus of HBV-Tg mice. After transfection with HBx in podocytes, the expression of MHC-Ⅱ and CD40 on the cellular surface was up-regulated (all P<0.05), the contents of monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), tumor necrosis factor -α (TNF-α) and interleukin (IL)-1β in the supernatants were increased (all P<0.05), and the secretion of IL-4 and interferon γ (IFN-γ) was unbalanced. RNA-seq screened downstream genes of HBx, such as Notch1, PLA2R, TLR4, etc; and further confirmed that HBx could promote the up-regulation of Notch1 mRNA and protein (all P<0.05). After over-expression of Notch1 gene, HBx-induced expression of MHC-Ⅱ and CD40 on the cellular surface was significantly up-regulated (all P<0.05), and the contents of MCP-1, TNF-α and IL-1β in the supernatants were obviously increased (all P<0.05), and the imbalance of IL-4/IFN-γ was further aggravated. After Notch1 gene silencing, the above results showed the opposite changes. In vivo, the results indicated that serum creatinine levels were obviously decreased (all P<0.05), renal pathological injury and immune cell infiltration were significantly alleviated in HBV-Tg+DAPT group than those in HBV-Tg+DMSO group. Conclusions:HBx protein can promote the up-regulation of Notch1 signaling pathway in podocytes. And Notch1 signaling pathway promotes the expression of immune molecules on the surface of podocytes and regulates the imbalance of cytokines, then causes glomerular injury and dysfunction of immune microenvironment.

All 15 patients were successfully extubated without asphyxia, decannulation and wound nonunion. For patients with idiopathic subglottic stenosis in the non-progressive stage, active surgical treatment strategy should be adopted and treated individually. The prognosis is satisfactory.
